Abstract
The manuscript presents a summary of the results of the linguistic
semantics study of Covid-19 related quarantine. Research conducted on a
sample of Russian speaking Ukrainians. Found content and structure of
the respective discursive field. Described features of inter-discourse
connections. Established that the actualization of some discourses is
accompanied by the deactivation of others, what makes quarantine
semantics biased. Also, it was suggested that some of the discourses are
indirectly positively associated and form the semantic core of the
quarantine concept.
